ROBOT Day will be returning to Coventry next month with visitors able to enjoy displays and games focused on science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM).
The free event is taking place on March 18 at Coventry College and will feature hands-on exhibits, workshops and talks from across the robotics industry.
This is the first flagship exhibition since 2019 with more than 5,000 people attending the last Robot Day.
Organisers Derrick Willer and Stephen Powley are hoping to recruit around 100 volunteers for this year’s event.
The project is aimed at inspiring and educating young people through inspirational figures they look up to, creative workshops, activities, displays, exhibits, and talks on robotics, automation and AI.
Stephen Powley, a Coventry University PHD candidate, said: “We are thrilled to announce Robot Day will be returning to Coventry to showcase the value of robotics, automation and AI to society.
“The event will bring together expertise from across the UK to increase public participation, promote diversity and inclusion in STEAM and address the skills shortage in the sector.
“We have hosted smaller events online and in-person over the last couple of years, but are thrilled to be returning with our full-scale exhibition in March.
“We are looking forward to revealing our full line-up in the weeks ahead, so keep an eye out on our social media pages for updates as we have some truly exciting people and exhibits to announce.”
